Arrive Like a Princess

Many brides want the "Princess experience" when planning their special day, from the frothy long dress, to the pampering, to the grand ball reception and dance. In order for the full princess effect to happen, the proper transportation is a must-have wedding accessory.

Arriving at your wedding like a Princess, in a horse-drawn carriage, adds a special touch of whimsy and magic to an already enchanted day. The aftermath of being whisked away to your reception with Prince Charming in tow gives that Cinderella feeling like no other. It is also a way for you and your Prince to catch your breath between the ceremony and reception with a quiet ride and a celebratory champagne toast.

Like any other wedding accessory, both the horse and the carriage can be decorated to match your wedding theme. Whether you adorn the fenders of the carriage with matching bows and garlands or lace ribbons through the horse's mane, a good carriage provider will work with you to ensure your theme endures. They will also provide a driver and/or footman who will work with your photographer to achieve the perfect lasting memory of your romantic royal experience.

A little planning goes a long way when choosing to arrive in style. Make sure your provider has you covered, literally, with a canopy and side curtains, in case of rain or inclement weather, and with an artful throw or beautiful blanket to snuggle under.

Add a red carpet to be rolled out upon your arrival at the ceremony or reception as a final, special accessory and you will have all of the makings of a magical mode of transportation to complete your "Princess experience."
